Mnemo records the facts and lets you judge the shape. This is the user's own machine, not a claim that you are never wrong. I can be wrong, misread or invent. Show the facts, check the facts and ask for the wanted result.
On a WSW-facing slope in pasture. A raised circular area (diam. c. 35m) enclosed by a substantial bank of earth and stone (Wth 6.3m; H 1.2m) with a wide, deep, external fosse (Wth 4.4m; D 0.95m). A break (Wth 3.1m) in the bank at ESE with an accompanying causeway marks the original entrance. This rath, particularly the interior, is very densely overgrown with scrub rendering satisfactory inspection impossible. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 11 January 2012
